Donkey Basketball game this Wednesday

WARRENSBURG - Local high school seniors will be testing their bareback riding skills as they take on the school faculty in a donkey basketball game, 7 p.m. March 4 at Warrensburg High School.

This madcap showdown has for decades been an annual tradition in the North Country - as stubbon animals test the will of determined humans.

Proceeds are to benefit the Warrensburg Central Senior Class, which is seeking money to go on a trip to Virginia Beach and Colonial Williamsburg. Tickets for the contest are $7 for adults and $6 for students.
